Travel to London’s airports over Easter 2015

The forthcoming Easter weekend marks one of the busiest travel periods of the year. As is now commonplace, there are extensive engineering works taking place on the London Underground and the UK’s national rail network which may affect travel times to London’s airports.

In addition to the works listed below, there are no trains to and from London Euston over the weekend.

The Piccadilly Line is due to operate normally throughout the weekend.

There will be very significant disruption to local and long distance First Great Western services from London Paddington over the weekend with some lines closed and potentially significantly longer journey times due to diversions. This is due to work on the Crossrail project and the ongoing remodelling of Reading station.
